Adriano Basso (born 18 April 1975) is a Brazilian footballer who plays as a goalkeeper. He currently plays for Hartlepool United.
Basso began his playing career in his native Brazil before entering English league football with Bristol City for whom he remained for five years. After being released in 2010, he signed a short-term deal with Wolverhampton Wanderers the following year and then spent his last season at Hull City.
Basso previously played for Ponte Preta and Atlético Paranaense in his homeland before moving to England. He had an unsuccessful three-month trial with Arsenal before joining non-league sides St Albans City and Woking.
He eventually signed for League One side Bristol City shortly after the 2005–06 campaign had begun, making his first team debut against Swindon Town on 11 November 2005. He quickly established himself as the club's first choice goalkeeper and was part of the team that won promotion to the Championship in the following season, also being crowned BBC West's Footballer of the Year.
The 2007–08 season saw Basso came within one game of reaching the Premier League, but the Robins lost the Championship Play-off Final to Hull City.
